Summerfest 2025
The financials for Summerfest were just completed this past week. On revenues of approximately $72,300 we netted a profit of $29,000. These results are comparable to last year when we netted $30,000. This year has been a very difficult one for 14 Holy Helpers with our merger into Queen of Heaven and the continued pushback from parishioners and the community about the Diocesan bankruptcy and abuse scandal including the abuse claim contribution assessed by the Diocese. Add to that some challenges to Summerfest with construction on Union Rd during the event and the last minute dropout by Hit N’ Run for Saturday. Challenges have come up constantly this year
In spite of those challenges, Summerfest 2025 was a SUCCESS! Our parishioners and friends came together again to volunteer their time and our sponsors and customers supported their efforts. People had fun at the games, the food and drinks were fantastic, we enjoyed each other’s company, and God blessed us with good weather. We were able to net a significant amount of money that will be used for the maintenance and operation of the church and our campus.
If anyone has any questions, concerns, or comments about Summerfest 2025, please send an email to summerfest@14hh.org or call Tom at 716-449-1143. You will get a response as soon as possible.
THANK YOU to all our volunteers!
THANK YOU to all our sponsors and customers!
THANK YOU to God for the blessings that you have provided to 14 Holy Helpers Church!

Support those who Support Us
We have been blessed to enjoy the support of our local business community over the past year. They have provided our parish, and the events and services we produce, with money, products, and services donations. Through their generous donations we have been able to generate needed revenue to work toward our mission and serve the local community.
Due to the recent coronavirus health crisis, many businesses have been forced to either temporarily close or operate in a restricted environment. Even those not as directly impacted have had to operate in a new world of social distancing, working environment cleansings, or managing a remote work force. Our supporting businesses stood up to help 14 Holy Helpers when we called … Businesses that Support 14 Holy Helpers LINK. Please consider supporting them with your patronage when you are in need of the goods or services that they provide to the community. Thank them and let them know that 14 Holy Helpers appreciates their support.
